Description

Margaret Meador joined the David Lipscomb Elementary School faculty in 1949. She began teaching fourth grade full-time in 1950 and taught with such unusual effectiveness that when she announced plans to retire in 1975, students, parents, and faculty talked her into staying one more year. She introduced her students to a world larger than their own, drilled them in multiplication, spelling, and grammar, and ignited the spark of interest in literature and history. But her most important influence was the presentation of pure Christianity through the lessons she taught and the loving image of Jesus Christ she lived before her students each day.
